What does "Sheepish Goat" mean? Is it a sarcasm making fun of somebody's accent?It's the remark of a YouTube video in which a mix-blood Australian named Jamie Zhu was pranking his Chinese father. His father's pronunciation of "Jamie" was like "Jaaaymie", very Chinese accent.

An Introspection of My First Term I'm a master student studying in the UK and now it's about the end of my first term. This is the first time that I have been exposed to a complete English learning environment and it really took a while for me to get accustomed to a different teaching mode from that of my undergraduate. Although I have attended my courses for 2 months I still felt struggling when listening to the class. I think the learning outcome of my first term is definitely not satisfactory and the reason would be the slow speed of my typing, the lack of good note-taking skill and bad time management to finish all the reading before the lectures and so on. But all these factors can be summarised as poor English. I have paid too much attention to figure out what the professors and articles were talking about so I couldn't at the same time manage to take good notes and reflect on the structure and content of the essays, not to mention combining the reading well to what the professors delivered in class. Sometimes I was able to know every single word of the professors and the articles but I couldn't grab a good understanding of a long narrative or 50-page long articles as a whole. It's fairly disappointing but I have to admit it. Actually I have taken some measures to make sure I'm not fall behind too far, such as recording the lecture (with the professor's permission) and typing the recording at home and taking notes of every page of the articles and looking back again and again to form an overview. Although these methods are fairly useful by doing which I think I've got progressed, they are really time-consuming that I couldn't finish all the recordings and reading under a rather dense course timetable. Moreover, these measures are so dull and exhausting that make me feel like being drown in the river even if I tried to be self-disciplined to do them. I'm really upset by the gap between me and my classmates but I should catch up with them however enormous the effort I need to make and however harsh the way I need to go. I hope at the end of this one-year programme I can at least get a merit in every module I selected.

What's the meaning of the requirement? I'm currently looking for a foreign homestay, the profile of my ideal host says that" Ideally seeking couples, at least one guy would be great." Does this mean if we are not couple, at least one of us would be a male? And if we are two girls (friends), we are not welcomed to send an enquiry?

My friends and I tried translating a slogan in a bank. We thought the original English translation was weird, so we tried translating individually. Please help check our translations and mark it ( Provised 10 is perfect and you were the bank's manager). Perhaps it would be confusing without knowing the Chinese meaning, but I think you can get the overall meaning by the following translations. The original English translation in the bank: Through non this bank formal channels for purchase ono this bank allow sales of financial products caused by the risk shall be borne by the customer. Mark: The client should assume the risk by yourself from buying financial products which are not permitted by this bank through unofficial way. Helen: Potential risks are attributable to clients themselves who buy unauthorised financial products through channels not approved by our bank. Chloe: The client who purchases financial products which are not permitted selling by this bank from informal channels should bear all the consequences.
